Bosnia and Herzegovina: Young People
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what diplomatic steps to help protect the (a) human and (b) educational rights of young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
The UK remains committed to protecting the human and educational rights of young people in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH).
We support human rights, including through projects to provide legal support for survivors of conflict-related sexual violence in BiH and to assist social cohesion in heavily divided communities.
Our embassy in Sarajevo regularly raises educational rights in engagements with BiH authorities, underlining our support for an inclusive future in BiH where fundamental rights are respected and all may access education.
We continue to work with international partners, including through the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe, to support these aims.
